ALDO x Julian Louie are now in Kuwait

The much-buzzed-about high street shoes collection Aldo for Julian Louie have hit K-town. Even though the collection was out since last March, Kuwait's Aldo stores only received them 2-3 days ago. I have seen these patterned wedges, made from patchwork suede and contrasting tribal prints, on a lot of street style bloggers (even Joe Zee of Elle Magazine tweeted about them!) and wondered if they're really as good as they look in photos. So when I took a closer look, they looked not bad (at least the style shown in the first and the last photos). I tried the printed one on, and they looked fun to wear with flared jeans. I didn't buy it though. However, the one shown on the 3rd photo from below looked bad! (as in ugly!). They're priced around KD 45.

I didn't like the peep-toe boots shown in the above photo! They even looked worse when I tried them on!

If you aren’t a fan of tribal prints, then the plain beige ones might appeal to you.
